Celebrating Thanksgiving: Love, Gratitude, and Chosen Family 🌈🦃
From Our Family to Yours - Seasons of Pride wishes you a Happy Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving, we are reflecting on the true meaning of family – not just the one we're born into, but the family we create, nurture, and choose. To my LGBTQ+ community, today is a celebration of resilience, love, and the families we've built with open hearts and unwavering support.
Gratitude looks different for each of us. Some of us are blessed with accepting families who welcome our partners with open arms. Others have found strength in the families we've created—our chosen family of friends, partners, and allies who stand beside us, lift us up, and love us exactly as we are.
This year, I'm thankful for:
The courage of those who came before us, who fought for our right to love and exist authentically
The communities that embrace and protect us
The love that knows no boundaries of gender, sexuality, or traditional expectations
The ability to create our traditions and celebrate our identities
To those spending the holiday with their biological family, those celebrating with their chosen family, or those who might be struggling – you are loved, valid, and belong. Your identity is beautiful, and your presence in this world is a gift.
Happy Thanksgiving – may your day be filled with love, acceptance, and pride. 🏳️🌈❤️
